SSC CPO - 10 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q122

What is the radius of a normal cylinder whose height is 21 cm and curved surface area is 1386 cm2?
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 10.5 cm

Formula used

Curved surface area (CSA) of cylinder = 2πrh 

where, r = the radius of the cylinder

h = the height of the cylinder

Calculation

⇒ 2πrh = 1386

⇒ 2 * (22/7) * r * 21 = 1386

⇒ r = 63/6 = 10.5 cm
